Joey Hood, United StatesConsul General to the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, talks about how everything we think we know about diplomats is wrong.

Keeping power and influence is the priority task of Sir Simon Macdonald, the permanent secretary - the chief civil servant - in a Foreign Office headed, for the moment, by foreign secretary Boris Johnson. Politicians may come and go, but civil servants remain. We follow the diplomats as they wrestle with a series of crises and challenges.
At the United Nations in New York, as world leaders gather for the special General Assembly week, the UK team juggles tasks from the delicate matter of who sits where - and the protocol status of Ivanka Trump - at the prime minister's session on modern slavery; to briefing Boris on what to say to his Russian opposite number Sergei Lavrov, as Russia continues to support the Assad regime in bombing Syria.
At the UK Mission to the UN, this special week is coordinated by HarrietO'Brien and SenayBulbul. They give Waldman a spirited, secret, night-time guided tour of the Security Council. Neither diplomat fits the mould of the traditional British stereotype: Senay is the daughter of Turkish immigrants, and as Harriet says, 'I left state school at 16 - if you'd told my 16-year-old self that I'd be a diplomat based in New York, I'd have just... died!'
Their colleague, diplomat-lawyer Ahila Sornarajah, is trying to get all 15 members of the Security Council to agree to a UK-proposed resolution to enable Daesh (Islamic State) fighters to be prosecuted anywhere in the world. A distinct touch of glamour is brought to the proceedings as human rights lawyer Amal Clooney works with Ahila and the British team. Their boss is UK ambassador to the UN Matthew Rycroft. He has to host all the British ministers visiting this week - including the foreign secretary and the prime minister - as well as dealing with unpredicted events around the world. When the Rohingya refugee crisis suddenly erupts in Burma, sensitive, private diplomacy is needed to try to get the Burmese government to listen to the world's outrage. He rapidly organises a discrete lunch meeting with all the major players - including Nikki Haley of the US, the Russians, the Chinese and foreign ministers from Burma's neighbours - but persuading the Burmese themselves to turn up needs extra delicate diplomacy. As the ministers arrive in the next room, Boris Johnson is given a quick no-holds-barred briefing by UK officials on how to deal with the Burmese delegation.

Harry Kopp is the author of CareerDiplomacy: Life and Work in the US Foreign Service (http://press.georgetown.edu/book/georgetown/career-diplomacy), an insider's guide that examines the foreign service as an institution, a profession, and a career. The interview looks at the functions, changes, challenges, expansion, and future of the foreign service.

Her Majesty's Diplomatic Service, the diplomatic service of the United Kingdom, and specifically the organisation which ran the Foreign Office in London before amalgamation with the Diplomatic Service in 1918

Foreign Service Officers, who occupy most of the top tiers of the Foreign Service, are one of five categories of Foreign Service employees. Other categories include Foreign Service Nationals and Specialists (e.g., Special Agents of the U.S. Diplomatic Security Service).

FSO career tracks

Currently, there are five career tracks (called cones) for State Department Foreign Service Generalists: Consular Officers, Economic Officers, Management Officers, Political Officers, and Public Diplomacy Officers. Consular Officers are charged primarily with working with American citizens with activities such as adoptions and would be charged with evacuating Americans from the country in the case of a disaster. Economic Officers work with foreign economic agencies to facilitate economic issues as well as foreign policy dealing with technology and sciences. Management Officers are responsible for the affairs of an embassy or consulate and dealing with the personnel and budgets of the embassy. Political Officers have the responsibility of interacting with foreign governments on policy issues and negotiating policy. Lastly, Public Diplomacy Officers inform the citizens of their respective countries on the actions of the embassy, including meeting with the press and giving educational events.

The term "Auswärtiges Amt" was the name of the Foreign Office established in 1870 by the North German Confederation, which then became German Empire's Foreign Office in 1871. It is still the name of the German foreign ministry today. From 1871 to 1919, the Foreign Office was led by a Foreign Secretary, and since 1919, it has been led by the Foreign Minister of Germany. Since December 2013, Frank-Walter Steinmeier has served as Foreign Minister, succeeding Guido Westerwelle. The primary seat of the ministry is at the Werderscher Markt square in the Mitte district, the historic centre of Berlin.

United States (album)

United States is the first full length hard rock collaborative album between hard rock guitar virtuoso Paul Gilbert and singer Freddie Nelson. The collaboration has been described as a cross between Queen and Mr. Big.

Keeping power and influence is the priority task of Sir Simon Macdonald, the permanent secretary - the chief civil servant - in a Foreign Office headed, for the moment, by foreign secretary Boris Johnson. Politicians may come and go, but civil servants remain. We follow the diplomats as they wrestle with a series of crises and challenges.
At the United Nations in New York, as world leaders gather for the special General Assembly week, the UK team juggles tasks from the delicate matter of who sits where - and the protocol status of Ivanka Trump - at the prime minister's session on modern slavery; to briefing Boris on what to say to his Russian opposite number Sergei Lavrov, as Russia continues to support the Assad regime in bombing Syria.
At the UK Mission to the UN, this special week is coordinated by HarrietO'Brien and SenayBulbul. They give Waldman a spirited, secret, night-time guided tour of the Security Council. Neither diplomat fits the mould of the traditional British stereotype: Senay is the daughter of Turkish immigrants, and as Harriet says, 'I left state school at 16 - if you'd told my 16-year-old self that I'd be a diplomat based in New York, I'd have just... died!'
Their colleague, diplomat-lawyer Ahila Sornarajah, is trying to get all 15 members of the Security Council to agree to a UK-proposed resolution to enable Daesh (Islamic State) fighters to be prosecuted anywhere in the world. A distinct touch of glamour is brought to the proceedings as human rights lawyer Amal Clooney works with Ahila and the British team. Their boss is UK ambassador to the UN Matthew Rycroft. He has to host all the British ministers visiting this week - including the foreign secretary and the prime minister - as well as dealing with unpredicted events around the world. When the Rohingya refugee crisis suddenly erupts in Burma, sensitive, private diplomacy is needed to try to get the Burmese government to listen to the world's outrage. He rapidly organises a discrete lunch meeting with all the major players - including Nikki Haley of the US, the Russians, the Chinese and foreign ministers from Burma's neighbours - but persuading the Burmese themselves to turn up needs extra delicate diplomacy. As the ministers arrive in the next room, Boris Johnson is given a quick no-holds-barred briefing by UK officials on how to deal with the Burmese delegation.

Inside the Foreign Office Series 1 Keeping Power and Influence

Donate: www.paypal.me/FreeUKTV
Keeping power and influence is the priority task of Sir Simon Macdonald, the permanent secretary - the chief civil servant - in a Foreign Office headed, for the moment, by foreign secretary Boris Johnson. Politicians may come and go, but civil servants remain. We follow the diplomats as they wrestle with a series of crises and challenges.
At the United Nations in New York, as world leaders gather for the special General Assembly week, the UK team juggles tasks from the delicate matter of who sits where - and the protocol status of Ivanka Trump - at the prime minister's session on modern slavery; to briefing Boris on what to say to his Russian opposite number Sergei Lavrov, as Russia continues to support the Assad regime in bombing Syria.
At the UK Mission to the UN, this special week is coordinated by HarrietO'Brien and SenayBulbul. They give Waldman a spirited, secret, night-time guided tour of the Security Council. Neither diplomat fits the mould of the traditional British stereotype: Senay is the daughter of Turkish immigrants, and as Harriet says, 'I left state school at 16 - if you'd told my 16-year-old self that I'd be a diplomat based in New York, I'd have just... died!'
Their colleague, diplomat-lawyer Ahila Sornarajah, is trying to get all 15 members of the Security Council to agree to a UK-proposed resolution to enable Daesh (Islamic State) fighters to be prosecuted anywhere in the world. A distinct touch of glamour is brought to the proceedings as human rights lawyer Amal Clooney works with Ahila and the British team. Their boss is UK ambassador to the UN Matthew Rycroft. He has to host all the British ministers visiting this week - including the foreign secretary and the prime minister - as well as dealing with unpredicted events around the world. When the Rohingya refugee crisis suddenly erupts in Burma, sensitive, private diplomacy is needed to try to get the Burmese government to listen to the world's outrage. He rapidly organises a discrete lunch meeting with all the major players - including Nikki Haley of the US, the Russians, the Chinese and foreign ministers from Burma's neighbours - but persuading the Burmese themselves to turn up needs extra delicate diplomacy. As the ministers arrive in the next room, Boris Johnson is given a quick no-holds-barred briefing by UK officials on how to deal with the Burmese delegation.
